looks like you need to use a tangent and a cosine to find the missing sides

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u walk me through it

OpenStudy (amistre64):

sure, but its mostly about knowing the definitions for your trig funcitons

OpenStudy (amistre64):

you see the side next.to the angle? that needs a cosine; cosine = next.to/hypot cos(54) = 57/hypot the pics blurry so i cant make out the variables too well

OpenStudy (amistre64):

tangent uses the definition; over/next.to tan(54) = over/57

OpenStudy (amistre64):

the rest is algebra and a calculator set on degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

which is?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

youll have to be more specific than that .....
